I found this answer https://stackoverflow.com/a/50816868/4802797 
<https://stackoverflow.com/a/50816868/4802797> from Till.

And he mentioned there that "...streaming jobs currently don't use managed 
memory…".

So that means, the memory used by flink streaming is really based on the jobs 
running there. If I cancel the job, the memory utilization should be dropped, 
right?
